Welcome to ジェニのピカピカ日本語。

It is 日本沈没 Sinking of Japan, a TV drama based on a Japanese science fiction novel by Sakyo Komatsu, published in 1973.

The scenes of the familiar city of Tokyo sinking into the sea are depicted with CG and are very powerful.

Oguri Shun, who I am a fan of, also appears in the movie.

It is also available on Netflix, which I recommend.

Now, today's expression is "すごい” amazing.

This expression is used when something happens that is beyond your expectations.

For example, when you pass a very difficult exam, you can say, 「すごいね！」"That's amazing.

こんにちは。

ジェニのピカピカ日本語へようこそ。

Today, Japan is closed for Labor Thanksgiving Day, but when I got on the train, there were more people on board than on any other recent day off, and it was very lively.

The number of corona infections in Japan has been decreasing lately, so it seems that many people are going out for a day in autumn when the weather is better.

I hope that the corona will continue to subside, but we still have to be careful in Europe as there are 30,000 to 60,000 new infections every day in Germany and around 40,000 in the UK.

Well, today I bring you a sample "Ohayo gozaimasu" from the Japanese language learning package.

Kling-sensei is working hard on it every day now, so please look forward to its completion.

See you soon.

Hello.

This year in Japan, even in late November, we are experiencing warm and comfortable days.

However, because of the warm weather, the autumn leaves don't seem to turn into beautiful colors.

Today, I would like to explain about One Piece, a very popular manga and anime that you may know.

There are many Japanese expressions in it, so please enjoy.

Hello.

Thank you for listening to jENI NO PIKA PIKA NIHONGO again today.

Shohei Ohtani's MVP award in the US baseball major leagues is a hot topic in Japan right now.

As I mentioned in this podcast, he was recognized for 二刀流two-way performance as both a pitcher and a hitter.

Congratulations.

Now, in today's episode,  KlingSensei explains about the holidays.

Hello.

Today is the 18th of November.

The year 2021 will be over in a month and a half.

It has been another year at the mercy of Covid-19, but I hope that 2022 will be a good year with the pandemic over.

Well, today's Japanese expression is "Ikemen（イケメン）".

Have a good day today.

See you soon.

Hello.

Welcome to jENI NO PIKA PIKA NIHONGO.

The topic of conversation in Japan today is whether or not Shohei Otani, who played a "two-way game" in baseball's big leagues, winning nine games as a pitcher and hitting 46 home runs as a batter, will win the MVP award.

As a fan of Japan, I would love to see Mr. Otani win the award.

Well, today's Japanese word is "Oufuku".

"Oufuku" (往復） means round trip, for example,

Bye.

Have a nice day.

Hi Welcome to jENI NO PIKA PIKA NIHONGO.

The autumn in Japan this year has been mild and warm.

Many of us have been choking up after a long period of being confined to our house due to COVID-19, but fortunately, the number of corona infections in Japan has now calmed down.

With this nice weather, it might be a good idea to go see the autumn leaves.

If you live in Japan and visit a place with beautiful autumn leaves, please let me know.

I'd like to share it in this podcast as well.

Now, today, I would like to introduce a Japanese expression, "Suits you.

This is an expression to express that your clothes or hairstyle suits you.

わあ、髪切ったんだ。その新しい髪形似合ってるね

Wow, you got a haircut. That new haircut looks good on you.

じゃあまたね。

I'm looking forward to hearing from you about the autumn leaves!

Enjoy!

Hi Welcome to jENI NO PIKA PIKA NIHONGO.

Today, I'm going to introduce my favorite anime, fruits basket.

It first started airing in 2001, but was remade in 2019 to become more popular.

I remember when I was in the second grade of elementary school, I used to look forward to coming home from school and watching Fruits Basket.

This story is about a high school girl（高校生の女の子）, Toru Honda, （本田透）who is living alone in a tent in the mountains after her mother died in an accident. However, the place where she pitched her tent is the land of her classmate Yuki Souma(草摩由希), and she ends up staying with the Souma family where Yuki lives.

Enjoy listening!

じゃあまたね。
